This is not a contagion event, this is a "lots of banks were exposed to the same macro economic risk" event. It'll play out how it plays out, but a bailout of SVB's depositors (what he and others are explicitly arguing for with hysterics like this) will not have any effect. SVB's collapse is correlated, not causal.
